Whenever I go there, I always take my camera and click away. The building itself, like the Guggenheim, is a work of art. These photos concentrate less on the art objects and more on the building and views of the surrounding neighborhood of midtown Manhattan, for me, one of the most visually exciting neighborhoods in the world.

In response to the Daily Post Blog Prompt: Fleeting What I was doing in Queens 5 years ago, I can’t remember, but I know it was time to start home. Caught the subway to take me into Bowling Green in Manhattan from there I could catch the ferry to take me back to Staten Island. […]
